Patent GB-0302834-D0 (GB)
Title: Secondary cell with tin anode
IPC: H01M10/36
Filed: 2003-02-07
Abstract: A secondary lithium cell in which the anode is made by first taking an electrode comprising a material which undergoes a structural change when it is first charged and discharged such as a layer of tin, assembling a cell comprising the said anode, a cathode containing lithium ions, and an electrolyte containing lithium ions, passing an electric current through the cell so as to insert lithium ions into the material e.g. tin and so charge the cell, and then discharging the cell. This cell is then dismantled, and the anode removed and any electrolyte washed off. The layer of tin or other material is then coated with a layer comprising a polymeric material. This coated and pre-cycled electrode can then be used as an anode in a secondary lithium cell. The polymeric coating, which may be a microporous polymer, a plasticised polymer, as gel polymer, or a polymeric electrolyte, for example based on polyvinylidene fluoride, suppresses the deterioration in cell performance on subsequent cycling.

Title: System and method for data acquisition and processing
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 2007-03-13
Abstract: A system and method for data acquisition and processing is described which can audio data form the basis of new and improved business and consumer services. Audio datagrams such as short duration audio-recordings made from radio or television broadcasts or from a CD player or an MP3 player or the like are captured using a microphone associated with a multimedia computer or mobile phone or PDA or fixed line device and processed to create a digital audiogram dataset which may be subsequently transmitted to a data processing server which comprises a music and or audio archive. A server receives and processes the digital audiogram dataset to enhance the captured audio data and convert it into a suitable format which matches the format of the audio data stored in the server archive. A search engine processes the received digital audiogram and attempts to match the captured audio data with data stored in the archive. When a successful match is made between the audio datagram such as with a genuine piece of music by a recognised artist, a message is sent back to the device which initiated the audio capture and transmission process, or to an email address registered to the device, indicating the name of the artist and the name of the song and details where the music or recorded broadcast can be obtained. The audio datagram capture-and-search process may form part of a service profile for a mobile subscriber and it may be directly linked with a mobile payment transaction service so that the subscriber may order and buy a copy of the music or broadcast directly.

Title: Polynomial data processing operation
Filed: 2008-03-26
Abstract: A data processing system 2 includes an instruction decoder 22 responsive to polynomial divide instructions DIVL.PN to generate control signals that control processing circuitry 26 to perform a polynomial division operation. The denominator polynomial is represented by a denominator value stored within a register with an assumption that the highest degree term of the polynomial always has a coefficient of “1” such that this coefficient need not be stored within the register storing the denominator value and accordingly the denominator polynomial may have a degree one higher than would be possible with the bit space within the register storing the denominator value alone. The polynomial divide instruction returns a quotient value and a remainder value respectively representing the quotient polynomial and the remainder polynomial.

Title: Producing colour picture tube screen
IPC: H01J9/227
Filed: 1987-05-27
Abstract: A method of producing a colour picture tube screen particularly for a high definition tube. In producing a high definition screen light from a point source (S) is directed through a segmented lens (18) and a shadow mask (24) onto a layer of photoresist applied to the internal surface of a faceplate panel (12). The segmented lens (18) comprises a rectilinear array of differently inclined facets (F). In order to obtain a substantially uniform illumination of the faceplate panel (12), the segmented lens (18) is wobbled in an oblique direction. In order to determine the optimum direction and extent of the wobbling movement, the method in accordance with the present invention involves assuming that the wobbling of the images at the screen is correct and then calculating the positions of virtual light sources to produce these images. In a first refinement of the method a raster pattern is provided on or in the lens (18) which limits the angular spread of light from each of the facets. In a second refinement the lens (18) or faceplate panel (12) is slowly displaced orthogonally to the main wobbling direction.
